I don’t wan na (C)talk

I’ve played all my (C)cards

and that’s what you’ve (G)done, too,

noth ing more to (F)say,

no more ace to (G7)play.

The win ner takes it (C)all,

the los er stand ing (Am)small

be side the vic to (Dm)ry,

that’s her des ti (G7)ny.

I was in your (C)arms,

think ing I be (G)longed there,

I ured it made (F)sense,

build ing me a (G7)fence,

build ing me a (C)home,

think ing I’d be (G)strong there,

but I was a (F)fool,

play ing by the (G7)rules.

The gods may throw a (C)dice,

their minds as cold as (Am)ice,

and some one way down (Dm)here

los es some one (G7)dear.

I was in your The win ner takes it (C)all,

The game is on a (C)gain,

a lov er or a (Am)friend,

a big thing or a (Dm)small,

the win ner takes it (G7)all.

The win ner takes it (C)all.
